isn't it nice how God made our feet so that they fit together like puzzle pieces?

last night we had our napoleon dynamite party. it was pretty great. we managed to cram twenty-one people into russel's tiny apartment. i have pictures, but i can't post them because that program still isn't working. i don't know what's wrong. the party wasn't quite what i imagined it would be. we didn't get to dress up because we don't have any clothes for that and mexico doesn't believe in the thrift store. and we didn't get to have napoleon dynamite themed food because mexico also doesn't believe in the tater tot. so i wore a western shirt and britta brought the sexiest cookies we've seen.

and for everyone who believes that mexico is a dangerous country, full of thieves and rapists, here's a little something to reinforce it. last night, the two girls who live downstairs from russel, ashley and laura, had some stuff stolen. they're not sure how or when it could have happened. but ashely's camera and wallet were taken from their kitchen table. they were very upset. we helped them look, in the apartment, all over the building, even out on the street in case they'd ditched the wallet somewhere. but nothing. it's really sad because it seems like everything has gone wrong for these girls since they got here. hopefully it gets better soon. we'll try to cheer them up and take care of them.

and to make sure that i end this on a good note, cause really, mexico is all about good things... i started a couple more studies this week (three i think) and i get to go back on two of them tomorrow morning. one's with a guy, and the other is with a couple. o, i don't know if i mentioned this before, but we're having our campaign right now. we have approximately 600 territories to cover. think we can do it?
